Hi

 

I've run Dynamicweb locally on my Vista with IIS 7 for 1½ years now - no problem.

 

To provide compatibility with .NET applications created to the old IIS architecture, IIS 7 ships with 2 different Application pools with different pipeline modes. Integrated, which is the new pipeline, and Classic which is the same as in IIS 6.

 

So - to run Dynamicweb on a IIS 7 server, simply use a .NET 2.0 Classic .NET App pool to run Dynamicweb. Dynamicweb does not yet support integrated pipeline mode.

 

Official support for IIS 7 and integrated pipeline mode will be available with the next update package due around October.

 

The installation guide does not handle IIS 7 - but the it should be simple for a webserver administrator to set up Dynamicweb using the IIS 6 installation guide of Dynamicweb.
